Online resources: Summary: During the last decade, fullerenes and carbon nanotubes have attracted special interest as new nanocarbons with novel properties. Because of their hollow caged structure, they can be used as containers for atoms and molecules, and nanotubes can be used as miniature test-tubes. Chemistry of Nanocarbons presents the most up-to-date research on chemical aspects of nanometer-sized forms of carbon, with emphasis on fullerenes, nanotubes and nanohorns. All modern chemical aspects are mentioned, including noncovalent interactions, supramolecular assembly, dendrimers, nanocomposites, chirality, nanodevices, host-guest interactions, endohedral fullerenes, magnetic resonance imaging, nanodiamond particles and graphene. The book covers experimental and theoretical aspects of nanocarbons, as well as their uses and potential applications, ranging from molecular electronics to biology and medicine.Summary: Chemistry of Nanocarbons -- Contents -- Preface -- Acknowledgements -- Contributors -- Abbreviations -- 1 Noncovalent Functionalization of Carbon Nanotubes -- 1.1 Introduction -- 1.2 Overview of Functionalization Methods -- 1.3 The Noncovalent Approach -- 1.3.1 Dispersability of Carbon Nanotubes -- 1.3.2 The Role of Noncovalent Functionalization in Nanotube Separation -- 1.4 Conclusion -- References -- 2 Supramolecular Assembly of Fullerenes and Carbon Nanotubes Hybrids -- 2.1 Introduction -- 2.2 Hydrogen Bonded C60 Donor Ensembles -- 2.3 Concave exTTF Derivatives as Recognizing Motifs for Fullerene -- 2.4 Noncovalent Functionalization of Carbon Nanotubes -- 2.5 Summary and Outlook -- Acknowledgements -- References -- 3 Properties of Fullerene-Containing Dendrimers -- 3.1 Introduction -- 3.2 Dendrimers with a Fullerene Core -- 3.2.1 A Fullerene Core to Probe Dendritic Shielding Effects -- 3.2.2 Light Harvesting Dendrimers with a Fullerene Core -- 3.3 Fullerene-Rich Dendrimers -- 3.4 Conclusions -- Acknowledgements -- References -- 4 Novel Electron Donor Acceptor Nanocomposites -- 4.1 Introduction -- 4.2 Electron Donor-Fullerene Composites -- 4.2.1 General -- 4.2.2 Donor-Fullerene Dyads for Photoinduced Electron Transfer -- 4.2.3 Donor-Fullerene Linked Multicomponent Systems -- 4.2.4 Supramolecular Donor-Fullerene Systems -- 4.2.5 Photoelectrochemical Devices and Solar Cells -- 4.3 Carbon Nanotubes -- 4.3.1 General -- 4.3.2 Carbon Nanotube - Electron Donor Acceptor Conjugates -- 4.3.3 Carbon Nanotube - Electron Donor Acceptor Hybrids -- 4.4 Other Nanocarbon Composites -- References -- 5 Higher Fullerenes: Chirality and Covalent Adducts -- 5.1 Introduction -- 5.1.1 Fullerene Chirality - Classification and the Stereodescriptor System -- 5.1.2 Reactivity and Regioselectivity -- 5.2 The Chemistry of C70.PPN: PPN: 809323435Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-26-MYL | ZDB-30-PAD | ZDB-30-PQE
